Breakfast Foods!
Bethany Fetterhoff
A lot of people have the
misconception that eating healthy
means eating bland. That is false.
Everyone loves parfaits because they
are fun and actually good-and they’re
great for college students because
you can make them right in your
dorm room. All you need is yogurt,
granola, fruit, and maybe even honey.
Eaten in the right proportions, this
can be a filling and healthy alternative
to the Starbucks coffee and muffin
you get when you’re on the run.
This snack has a lot of health
benefits and would be a perfect onthe-go breakfast. One of the benefits
is that it has a lot of Vitamin E which
is good for pains from arthritis.
These seeds are also known to
prevent heart attacks, lessen stress
levels, and help you relax. This would
be a great breakfast on a big exam or
presentation day to calm your nerves
if you are the nervous type. Lastly,
this food is great for your skin. They
keep it looking youthful.
Surprisingly enough, there is a way to
make eggs in a college dorm. All you
need is eggs, milk, and any other
toppings you might want to include.
You just spray the coffee mug you
want to use, put your eggs and milk
into it, beat them until they’re
blended, microwave on high for 45
seconds, stir, and microwave for 3045 more seconds. This is a great meal
for the on-the-go typical American
and is a great source of protein as
well.
This is a great breakfast and is easily
storable in a college dorm. All you
need is a mini fridge. This food is
high in calcium and low in calories.
Something I did not know about is
that this is also high in protein.
However, if you eat this for
breakfast, it should be only one. The
full-fat packs have 16 grams of fat
which, if you’re on a 2,000 calorie
diet, is 80% of what you’re supposed
to have daily. It is still a fast breakfast,
though.
Who doesn’t love the taste of peanut
butter? Personally, I am known for
taking a spoon, dishing out a big
glob, and eating it right off the
spoon. That is how my parents had
to get a lot of nutrients into my diet
when I was a kid. I am the pickiest
eater you will ever meet. But I love
my peanut butter. This is a great way
to get nutrients. However, like with
everything else, don’t eat too much.
Whole
Wheat Bread
Not a lot of people remember to put
fiber in their diets. 100% whole
wheat bread is high in this which is
great for your diet. The
carbohydrates in this kind of bread is
actually good for you. They actually
give your body energy and can
actually help you with weight loss.
Slather this in the previously
mentioned peanut butter, and you
have got yourself a fast, healthy, and
easy breakfast meal you are sure to
enjoy.
If you’re like me, you do not really
like to eat fruit plainly. I mentioned
how I was a picky eater…well I don’t
even like most fruits-unless it’s mixed
into a smoothie. I love smoothies.
They get you all the fruits you might
not normally eat and they are so
filling. They may not be the quickest
to make, but they don’t take too long
and they really are one of the most
delicious breakfast foods (or anytime
snack) I have ever had. Put it in a togo cup and head out the door.
This is probably the most popular
choice of breakfast in the college
world-unless you’re not eating any
breakfast at all. This can be a great
choice or a not so great choice. It all
depends on what kind of bar you
choose. Most people do not pick
energy bars. They choose the
chocolate or the sugary cereal bars.
You have to make the good decision
to purchase bars with the nuts and
the berries. Also, they can be great on
a college budget with coupons.
One of the most obvious choices for
a healthy breakfast would have to be
fruits in general. One of the big
kinds would be any type of berry.
Every type of fruit has something
unique and different about it to
contribute to your body. Three of my
favorites are grapes, bananas, and
apples. You can just grab them on the
way out of your door in a hurry and
be on your way. There is nothing to
prepare and there is almost nothing
bad about these foods.
…And with fruit comes vegetables.
These things usually go hand in hand.
I, however, like fruit more. One of
the more famous things I see being
done with vegetables for breakfast is
making toast and putting tomatoes
on it. That adds a variety of flavor
and keeps the taste from being bland.
The little baby carrots are something
else I see today. You can just grab a
handful on the way out your door
and you have got yourself a very
beneficial breakfast.
